Average total cost is the average of all your costs. This is your Fixed Costs and your Variable costs. Average Variable Cost is the average of your costs that can fluctuate.
When average variable costs equal to the average marginal cost, the average variable cost will be at the minimum point. i.e. lowest cost
This is the economic distinction equivalent to fully absorbed cost of product and variable cost of product. Average cost is total cost divided by number of units. Marginal cost is the cost to produce the next unit (or the last unit
Total cost is greater than average variable cost because total cost includes both variable costs and fixed costs, while average variable cost only accounts for variable costs per unit of output. Fixed costs remain constant regardless of the level of production, which means they contribute to the overall total cost but do not affect the average variable cost calculation. As production increases, the average variable cost may decrease due to spreading the variable costs over more units, but the total cost continues to rise. Therefore, total cost will always exceed average variable cost due to the inclusion of fixed costs.
It depends if the increase in Average Cost is caused by an increase in Fixed Costs or an increase in Variable Costs. An increase in Fixed Costs will not increase MC, because FCs do not vary with output (by definition) And increase in Variable Costs will increase MC

No. But: ATC = AVC + AFC Or TC = VC + FC
You don't fire variable costs
shut up u neek

a semi fixed cost moves upward in a step where semi variable cost begining at a given base level

In the short run, all costs are considered variable except for fixed costs, which remain constant. Total cost in the short run can fluctuate due to changes in variable costs, affecting average total cost. In the long run, all costs become variable, allowing for more flexibility in adjusting production levels to optimize efficiency and minimize costs. Fixed costs become average fixed cost and average variable cost in the long run as they spread over more units of production.
Average Total Cost (ATC) and Average Variable Cost (AVC) get closer as output increases because fixed costs are spread over a larger quantity of output. As production rises, the impact of fixed costs on ATC diminishes, making ATC approach AVC, which only includes variable costs. Consequently, the difference between ATC and AVC decreases, reflecting the reduced per-unit burden of fixed costs at higher production levels.
No. Total cost includes fixed costs, too. Even Semi Variable costs include Fixed costs...??? So whats the difference?
Variable overhead cost variance is that variance which is in variable overheads costs between the standard cost and the actual variable cost WHILE fixed overheads cost variance is variance between standard fixed overhead cost and actual fixed overhead cost.
